As many of you are aware Venezuela is in a severe financial crisis for some time and their national currency - the bolivar is has extremely low purchasing power. In fact the purchasin power of the bolivar is at least 7 times lower that the purchasing power of the virtual gold in World of Warcraft.
In WoW you can pay the 20$ subscription fee by giving up ~204 684 gold (this gold does not have any value, unlike BTC). According to the latest exchange rates 1$ equals 70,000 Bolivars. If you do the math you will come to the result that WoW gold is at least 7 times more expensive than Venezuela's currency.
Obviously the situation in Venezuela is extremely nasty for it's residents and this explains why a lot of the country's population are very interested in Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies in general. I think this is where the true value of Bitcoin lies - they are inflation-proof assets and the supply is limited and can not be altered.
